Douglas Fir Prelighted Christmas Tree?

People who want to showcase their ornament collection favor the Douglas fir prelighted Christmas tree. Branches are well spaced for trouble-free ornament placement and viewing. 

Tradition and convenience remain the two distinct differences between a live Christmas tree and an artificial tree. An artificial prelighted tree is the perfect answer for holiday decorating. Artificial trees date back to the 1880s in Germany as a way to save native forests. The trees have advanced over the years. Twenty-seven million real trees and more than 9 million artificial versions were sold in the United States in 2004, according to the National Christmas Tree Association. 

Both indoors and out, 16^th century German fir trees were decorated with apples, roses, gilded candies, and colored paper. A popular religious play in the Middle Ages portrayed the ejection of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden. The Paradise Tree – a fir tree hung with apples – was used to represent the garden. It is held that the German reformer Martin Luther first decorated Christmas trees with light.

Already Lit, Looking Natural, Fake Trees

Whether in conventional stores such as Target or high-end home furnishing catalogs including Frontgate, a number of companies selling artificial trees say that during the past several years, prelighted trees increasingly are in demand. Target has gone from offering three prelighted tree styles to a dozen in just one year.
